Pros and Cons in comparison

Kawasaki Ninja ZX-4RR 2024

Kawasaki Ninja ZX-4RR 2024

The mere fact that the Kawa Ninja ZX-4RR with its high-revving Inline four-cylinder engine in bonsai format has no real competition makes it absolutely unique. The engine is also the absolute flagship, with a rev limit at 16,000 touring you'll be addicted to wind out a gear! The suspension, brakes and electronics are of a high height, but what is more surprising is that, despite all the sportiness, the bike is still very suitable for everyday use - the seating position is not as radical as on other supersports bikes.

Fun in-line four-cylinder

precise quickshifter with blipper

balanced handling

sporty and pleasant ergonomics

comprehensive electronics package

Engine needs to be kept happy

looks confusing with other Kawasakis

Kawasaki Ninja 1000SX 2023

Kawasaki Ninja 1000SX 2023

A sports tourer of the old school. The Kawasaki Ninja 1000SX fulfils all the points you would expect from this bike category. Added to this is a comprehensive electronics package that offers everything you could wish for when travelling - and at no extra charge! The fact that the operation is perhaps not quite as intuitive as the competition already manages, is forgiven at the latest when you take a look at the price tag.

silky four-cylinder

comfortable yet sporty ergonomics

wind protection

standard electronics package

lots of stability thanks to full fairing

very accessible.

Engine needs revs

electronics could be more user-friendly
